In Week 5, the Cincinnati Bengals will try to win two games in a row after defeating the Carolina Panthers for the first time in Week 4.
Star quarterback and current NFL MVP Lamar Jackson and the rival Ravens stand in the way of the Bengals’ hopes of going on a two-game winning run. Regretfully, Jackson has had a very successful career versus Cincinnati throughout his time with the Bengals.
What is the record of Lamar Jackson against the Bengals throughout his career?
Jackson is 8-2 overall with an 8-2 record in his ten career games against the Bengals. That is an 80 percent win rate. After losing his opening game versus Cincinnati in 2018, Jackson defeated the Bengals five times in a row. After suffering his second defeat in 2021, he has won three in a row.
Jackson has won eight games versus the Bengals, more than any other team in the NFL. Against the Cleveland Browns, he has seven victories. Given how frequently he plays Baltimore’s division, it stands to reason that he has the most victories against those two teams.Jackson’s ten encounters with the Bengals have all taken place in the regular season. During his reign, the two teams faced up once in the playoffs in 2022, but Jackson was injured and missed the match.
However, while Jackson has been extremely successful while facing the Bengals, Joe Burrow and the Ravens are a different story. Burrow has faced Baltimore in seven previous regular season games and has a 3-4 career record against them. Burrow, however, is 1-0 versus the Ravens in the postseason after leading the Bengals to victory in the 2022 meeting, despite having a losing record against them during the regular season.
It goes without saying that Cincinnati is hoping that Jackson leaves Paycor Stadium on Sunday with an 8-3 lifetime record versus the Bengals. The Bengals will need to try to find a method to restrict Baltimore’s ground game in order for that to occur. Jackson plays a major role in the Ravens’ current NFL-high 220.3 running yards per game.
